My new Playtoy

Glad to hear you had good time.
Just a quick warning when you go to change clutch, be very carefull with pressure plate spring bolts , they are made of cheese and don't overtighten them other wise you'll be forking out ££££ for a new clutch basket.

Oh and get a complete kit which includes springs etc.
I'am running heavy duty EBC clutch kit in mine and haven't had a fault yet.

Good luck

Got the luxury of this, so any engine gremlins & I should be ok. By the sound of it, this wreck is going to be worth the £120 I paid for it

Coo, that's taken a fair old clout. Still, there looks to be a fair amount of useable stuff left on it. Well worth 120 sheets to the right person, i.e. you.

I dunno Mr C, you might have a few handling issues with that CB500

Made me laugh when the guy said that he had to remove the frame number so I couldn't put it back on the road
It would cost less to buy a new bike

Here she is virtually finished. Just waiting for my front Goodridge hose and hanlebar grips to arrive then thats it.
Doing another trackday @ Oulton onSaturday, so can't wait to try her out.
Also picked a pair of wet tyres off ebay for £60, so I won't even moan if its raining

looks ace

Same disks and brakes as the Dullsville too I notice.

Rear disc conversion was a nightmare. When I bought the crashed one I didn't realise that the rear wheel spacer was missing, so ended up making one. The swinging arm was different, but had one & with the footrest hanger i had to re engineer it because 2nd hand, they are as rare as hens teeth and new they cost about £150
I am quite chuffed with the colour scheme which I did in my front room last night (overspray might be a problem to get off everything). It is the same colour scheme as the company I work for, so if I go racing, i might just mention it to the M.D. (sponsorship )
